Tree size drives diversity and community structure of microbial communities on the bark of beech (fagus sylvatica)

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    A few studies showed that the trends observed for macroepiphytes (e_g, bryophytes, lichens) or components of the phyllosphere also appear in bark-associated microbes (e_g, Vorholt, 2012; Arrigoni et_al, 2020). Most of the studies focus on non-natural, commercially driven ecosystems like orchards or vineyards (Martins et_al, 2013; Arrigoni et_al, 2018) and are often conducted over small spatial scales with small sample sizes (e_g, Leff et_al, 2015). Lastly, the focus often lies on only a single group of microorganisms, with bacteria and fungi far outweighing terrestrial algae (Aschenbrenner et_al, 2017; Petrolli et_al, 2021). A . . .
